Warning
regarding
the Healing Gathering
of Manmin Sect in Cairo, Egypt
September 2005
|
The
Manmin
sect is spreading its influences in Christianity of Egypt. Egypt is the
Big Brother of the Arabic speaking Muslim countries and it is among one of
the origins of the ancient civilization of mankind.
Religious Situation in Egypt
Egypt was the early mission base in time of Jesus' apostles. Christianity
in Egypt was totally destroyed by the newly arisen Muslim military forces
in around late 7th century and the Christians chose to be martyred or hid
underground or fled to the mountains, or moved their base into
southern Egypt starting Christian Kingdom until 14th century. Muslims make up 85.4% of this country's people. The government estimates the Christian population at 6%, but other sources put it as high as 14.2%. Ninety-two percent of the Christian population are members of the Coptic Church, which existed before the arrival of Islam. Cairo is currently considered to be the hub of Sunni Islamic publications and scholarship.
There seems to
be peace in the street of Egypt among Islam, Coptic and Protestant, but it
is because the Coptic members and the protestant members are reluctant to
disclose about their faith in the public place, avoiding provoking the
emotions of lunatic Muslim fundamentalists.
Egyptian Government Control on Christianity
Most government cabinet members of Egypt consist of Muslims and the
national policies naturally tend to protect the benefit of the absolute
majority, that is, Muslims. Government applies various actions to suppress
the growth of Coptic Orthodox and protestant churches by following
practices.
1) Activity of foreign missionaries is prohibited. If they are found, they
are expelled from Egypt immediately and banned to be admitted to
come back to Egypt again.
2) Evangelization activity such as distributing tracts and papers in the
public place is prohibited.
3) Construction of a new church building, which shows off the expansion of
the Christian influence, is hard to get permission for from local government and
requires a lots of lobbying with much political backup.
4) Any Christian gathering which has more than 500 attendees should be
reported to police department and receive permission from the authorities.
There are many dangers of terror by Muslim fundamentalists in those
gathering. The police consider the apects of the meetings
and need to be notified about the possibility of confliction between Christian
parties and Muslims.
5) Conversion from the Islam to the Christianity is prohibited legally.
6) The constitution provides for the freedom of belief and the practice of religious rites.
7) Islam was declared the state religion in 1980. |
|
8) An official decree of the Ottoman Empire still in force is a 1856 law requiring non-Muslims to obtain a presidential decree to repair, remodel, or build a place of worship. A 1934 Minister of Interior Decree added ten conditions to the issuing of this decree. They include not allowing a church to be built within 100 meters of a mosque, requiring the permission of any utility official when the construction is near that utility, and requiring that none of the Muslim neighbors object to the buildings construction. It is reported that obtaining permission often takes years. During this delay, it is not uncommon for a mosque to be built near the site, causing the requested construction to be in violation of the above listed condition. This law was recently changed so those governors could issue a decree for repairs. Many see this as a further hindrance as lower officials are more easily influenced by extremist elements. |
|
9) All Egyptian citizens are required to have listed on their identity card whether they are Christian or Muslim. This card must be presented whenever a person applies for employment. There are cases of people who are trying to change their listed religion from Muslim to Christian being arrested for falsifying documents. Persons arrested on these charges have been interrogated and physically abused in an attempt to obtain information on other converts and their activities.
10) The government-owned television stations broadcast only 2 hours of Christian programming a year on Easter. Most of the tax-supported programming is pro-Islamic, if not anti-Christian.
11) While proselytizing is not illegal, some Muslim converts to Christianity have been charged with a provision of the Penal code that prohibits the use of religion to "ignite heavenly strife, degrade any of the heavenly religions or harm national unity or social peace."
12) Children with Muslim names are enrolled in Islamic classes regardless of their parent's wishes. This presents a problem because parents are hesitant to give their children traditionally Coptic names as it increases the risk they will be discriminated against. As a result, Coptic parents try to give their children a name that is used by both religious communities.
13) The portion of history when the Coptic Christians were the majority (the first six centuries AD) is not taught in Egyptian public schools.

Can the Manmin sect belong to Christianity?
There are Korean churches registered in Korea Embassy to serve only Korean
Christians. Those churches do not target to get Egyptian Muslims. They are called "Foreigner church". Such church meetings are
also allowed in Dubai, UAE, which is one of the most fundamental Muslim
countries.
Now we came to have one question. Is Manmin sect among the category of
normal Christianity?
The major Christian committee of Korea, called CCK (Christian Council of
Korea, over 90% of sound Christian churches have joined) classified Lee-Jaerock
and Manmin as the dangerous extremist sect of mysticism, practicing
soothsaying, trickery, terror, gambling and deification (please refer this
report). Many overseas pastors are deceived after watching the sermons and events in the well-decorated overseas
gatherings in Russia, India, Peru and Honduras of Manmin sect through
satellite, internet video or CDROMs.
But they do not know that these gatherings are the first step to seduce the good
Christians to become victims and followers of an adulterous sect leader. Sexual
intercource with Lee-Jaerock is the expression of loyalty and affection to
him.
Another clear evidence that Lee-Jaerock follows the teachings of demons is
that he justifies his adultery in doctrines put forth in his sermons. Those sermons are hard to
be acquired as the evidence for foreigners, because most of them are preached in
Korean language. Lee-Jaerock knows well that preaching of his sex doctrine
in any overseas gathering (a so-called "healing festival" or
"healing crusade") would disclose this heretic identity to the
public, giving great failure in his deceptive overseas strategy. Many
domestic sermons give implied hints about his sex doctrine which justify his sex with his followers
and they exists in audio and video files. Please contact KAACH.
Lee-Jaerock is praised together with God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit in
public services. Singers have the internal rule to praise Lee-Jaerock in
their songs. Lee-Jaerock once mentioned himself as the reincarnated Holy
Spirit while he was with his girl friends who have sex with him.
In his sermon, he justifies his adultery, mentioning second, third and
fourth wifes of Jacob. In other words, he says he can have more than one
wife like Abraham, Jacob and King Solomon, including even married women.
The teaching of the Manmin sect is against the faith of both the
Christianity and the Islam, arising great ethical disorder and social crimes.
What is the meaning of Manmin's Cairo Healing Gathering in September 2005
?
Lee-Jaerock was excommunicated from Korean Christianity because of
soothesaying, which Manmin calls "prophesy". Lee-Jaerock had a
first prophetess, which actually was second wife of Lee-Jaerock and had
sex with her from the foundation of the church in 1982 until 1992 when Lee-Jaerock
was at the risk of death because of bleeding of his nose. Han Jung-Ae, the
prophetess quit Manmin in 1999, after she disclosed crimes of Lee-Jaerock,
including sex scandals, Las Vegas gambling, swindling and drug addiction
to MBC (Munhwa Broadcasting Company). And MBC broadcasted a documentary program
about the crimes of Lee-Jaerock. While doing this, Manmin protesters
stormed MBC headquarters and 6 persons were arrested and put into the
jail. After Han left Manmin, the second prophetess LHJ was elected instead
of her and recently she spoke about Lee-Jaerock's spiritual training,
which is told to be allowed by God.
The brief summary of the prophesy about Lee-Jaerock's spiritual training
related to Cairo gathering is as follows.
Training step 1. Adaptation of Lee-Jaerock's spirit
Shortly later, Lee-Jaerock should travel around as the state
of a separated spirit. He should need to receive training to be adapted to the
spirit separation. Lee-Jaerock says he would have adapted to 1st dimension (the first
heaven), but he could have not adapted to 2nd, 3rd, and 4th dimension, so he brags that
he had received 7 weeks of adaptation training.
[Critic review] yet till now - May 2005, there seems to be
no effect, no changes or no comments about the result of his bragged so-called
"training" at the pulpit. It shows "Adaptation of Lee-Jaerock's spirit" is just faked
story to deceive plain members with high language.
Training step 2. Separation of Lee-Jaerock's spirit
This stage is explained that Lee-Jaerock comes to be trained
to perform the separation of his spirit (OBE, Out of Body Experience) and he would go
and come into 2nd, 3rd and 4th dimension freely at his own will. This training is told
to be completed before May 2005. Under the 2nd step of spiritual training, there is
China gathering in early May 2005, Beijing. In the early stage of 2nd stage of so-called
"spiritual training", Peru gathering was told to be held.
[Critic review]
The separation of the spirit and OBE (Out of Body Experience) is the occult act like
divination, sorcery, mediumism, and
witchcraft, which God prohibited. Also this act is a type of the Antichrist act.
Training step 3. Lee-Jaerock enters into the space of the spiritual realm with his body.
This is the step, the things immediately submit under the
commanding word.
In this stage, Lee-Jaerock is said to be walking on the surface of water and making the wind and waves
calm. This stage is told to started from June,
which is late 2005. In the middle of 3rd step of spiritual training, Lee-Jaerock
is told to enter into Egypt. (Egypt Allied Gathering, Cairo - the capital). Lee-Jaerock
brags that if he enters into this stage, the unbelievers would also fear him. After 3rd step pf spiritual training, it is said that
an USA
(New York) gathering is to be held.
[Critic review]
Lee-Jaerock's assertion imitated Einstein's theory
of the relativity, such as the speed of light, the meaning of dimensions
and the relation between time and space. He had continuously insisted that he would walk
on the surface of water very soon from 1998, but he has not shown any
progress.
Training step 4. Lee-Jaerock performs what Jesus performed after Jesus had
revived
After 4th step of spiritual training, Lee-Jaerock is told to have a
healing gathering in Israel. According to the prophesies from Lee-Jaerock's
prophetess, any laws of the country (Israel) cannot stop Lee-Jaerock at
that time. Lee-Jaerock once implied that his body changes into the body of
resurrection like that of ressurected Jesus. (John 20:19)
[Critic review] According to the Bible, our body changes when the Lord
Jesus comes again to this earth. Bibically, it is impossible thing before
Lord Jesus come on this earth.
Lee-Jaerock's false teachings in the sermon about Egyptian civilization
and Adam.
1.
Pyramid
The 3 pyramids in Giza in Cairo were built by Adam to celebrate God
the Trinity. Originally on the surface of the Pyramids, shining stone
plates were placed, so that the pyramids were seen even outside of the
earth. Before the Dinosaur betrayed God, Adam built Pyramids for the
purpose of showing off his own power and authority. But after the
rebellion of Dinosaur against God by entering into forbidden area in
Eden, where the tree of life was placed, Adam started to build pyramid to commemorate
the glory of God the Trinity. |
|
2. Sphinx
According to Lee-Jaerock's sermon, Sphinx was Adam's head cherubim,
which supervised the construction of Giza Pyramids. This cherub had
command over many other mighty worker cherubs. Lee-Jaerock says Adam made
this image of Sphinx to commemorate the contribution of this cherum
to Adam's Pyramid construction. Lee-Jaerock insists that the
evidence that Great Pyramid of Giza is not the tomb of Egyptian
King is the fact that the tomb is empty. He also mentioned that
inside of the Pyramid, spiritual power can be felt and many spiritual
things happen.
Muslims, Jews and sound Christians reject the idea that Sphinx is a spiritual thing which
was accepted by God. Rather in the Bible, we see that God
punished the gods of Egypt. which controlled Pharaoh to resist
against the order of God. |
|
3. UFOs
(Unidentified Flying Objects)
Before Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden, Adam
traveled to the Planet Earth, which was Adam's vacation spot through the
transportation in UFO. When the Dinosaurs, the pet of Adam, which rebelled against God, was
expelled to the earth. they were jailed in UFO, moved and scattered
at the various spots on the earth. Lee-Jaerock insists that UFOs
which are witnessed in the sky in these days, are the flying vehicles
of Edenians, who are the sinless descendants of Adam. Lee-Jaerock insists
shortly he will be able to bring down UFOs from heaven. See
the photo which shows the relativity among Lee-Jaerock, pyramid and
UFO. The girl at the right side of Lee-Jaerock is supposed to be one
of Lee-Jaerock's girl friends. This picture was taken during a Manmin
pilgrimage in March 2004. |

visit dedicated review about Lee-Jaerock's Genesis Analysis.
What is the purpose of Manmin's overseas missioning activity
1. Like other Christian sects, Manmin targets to make the world know about
its sect leader Lee-Jaerock, his power (so-called, the power of the
shepherd) and his gospel of holiness (what sort of holiness? The hidden doctrine of
free sex?)
2. Manmin is searching for men of wealth, who will fund its overseas
activity and the construction of the Great Sanctuary in South Korea. Lee-Jaerock expects
the construction fund of the great sanctuary will be prepared through
so-called "his power". The prophetess is said to had given
prophesies that people around the world and Arab countries will visit Lee-Jaeorck
to offer money to Lee-Jaerock to be healed and to receive Lee-Jaerock's
blessing prayer.
Lee-Jaerock had visited Dubai, UAE several times since 2004 to pray on the
sick muslims and king's relatives who want to be healed and who want to be
blessed in their business.
3. It is to solve the financial crisis of the church. Manmin sect is known
to have $30 millions of debts which was utilized to buy new land for new
building. And the salaries for pastors and workers of Manmin are known to
be delayed for a long time. Many pastors and workers also have many
debts because their salary payment was almost stopped or irregular. For the
opening of GCN TV company (Global Christian Network), $6 millions is said
to be needed by June 2005.
History of the sect propagation in Egypt
|
May
26 2003 Start of sect outreach
The missionary center of this sect dugged out a contact
point to investigate the status of the Christianity of Cairo. The manager of this
center, Jeremi cooperated with an Egyptian evangelist, Walid Salah.
They are said to visit several churches in Cairo. This center organized
a field training team and made "a trip of missionary vision"
with a purpose to open multiple contact points in Cairo's protestant
and pentacostal churches. This group is said to had held pastor's
seminar on the ship restaurant on the River Nile. About 100 pastors
attended and the introduced overseas gatherings and Lee-Jaerock.
|
In every overseas gathering of Manmin, they put the photo of Lee-Jaerock,
believing Lee-Jaerock's photo emits spiritual rays to heal the
people making evil forces flee. Many Lee-Jaerock's evangelists who
are called as a persons with opened-spiritual eyes, testifies
without hesitation that strong rays are coming out from Lee-Jaerock's
picture. And the ray is called the light of power.
In this assertion, we
can feel strong smell of a spirit of Antichrist or even shamanism.
They do not have Jesus Christ any more as the condition of the
performance of healing. Lee-Jaerock is another spiritual force to
replace the position of Jesus who is the Lord of power in heaven
and on the earth. |
Dec
2004. Hankerchief prayer gathering in Alexandria Conference
House.
The director of Manmin's Overseas mission team, an assistant pastor and praise team -
"Crystal Singers" held a gathering in Alexandria. (crystal singers is a praise team,
composed of 7 sisters, usually Manmin praise teams have a certain level
of sexual relationship with Lee-Jaerock, they offer their virginity
to their idol Lee-Jaerock as a proof of their loyalty to him) About 800
pastors attended to watch the performance of Crystal Singers and the
sermon of Lee-Joongwon, who is one of the senior assistant pastor to
Lee-Jaerock. The sermon and performance looks very biblical because
normally Manmin sect hides real identity of thier cult features to
avoid any contentions in Overseas countries. Pastor Aziz Morgan
played a great role to gather Egyptian pastors to this seminar from
all around in Egypt and neighboring countries.
You can find an interesting thing in this sect's picture. In the
picture of upper left, the Korean pastor held a so-called
hankerchief of Lee-Jaerock's power (the hankerchief of the
Shepherd's power) while he was praying for the sick people. And in
the hankerchief, you can see a photo of Lee-Jaerock. It is because
the mystic members of Manmin sect believe that healing light is
coming out from Lee-Jaerock's photo like any amulet. This teaching
is against the teaching of God, written in 10 commandments (Do not
make any image of idols). Usually the Manmin sect explains about the
reason why they put Lee-Jaerock's photo in the hankerchief and in
the back screen of the stage, in this way. "If you see the book
of Acts, people took away apron or hankerchief from Paul, and it
exercised healing power when it is layed on the sick
people."
If you attend Manmin service, Lee-Jaerock is even elated up to a
level of owner of the healing power. Lee-Jaerock is mentioned as
someone came from heaven to complete the providence of God in the
latter day. Lee-Jaerock referred himself as the incarnated God the
Holy Spirit in a private meeting with his members.

Jan 16 ~
Feb 8 2005.
Manmin sect published Arabic version of Lee-Jaerock's biography
"Tasting Eternal Life Before Death". The chief local agent
Walid Salah of Egyptian Freedom Publishing, joined 37th Cairo
International Book Fair on behalf of Manmin's Urim
book company from Jan 16 to Feb 8 2005. One of Walid's workers
poses at the booth.

Mar
2004. 3 Manmin staffs - Johnny Kim (the director of the overseas mission
team), Jeremi Jung, Young Sun Kim visited Cairo to prepare a healing
gathering which will be held in September 2005. They investigated
legal steps and lobby measures to enable the gathering this year to
"guarantee" the word of the prophesy given by Lee-Jaerock's
senior prophetess LHJ. They are very careful not to provoke the
attention of Egyptian authorities and muslim organizations.
Jeremi Jung, who is the senior manager of Egypt gathering
preparation, is said to be residing in Cairo to search for contact
point to the government and to advertize the gathering which will be
held in September 2005. |
Manmin sect's cooperators in Egypt
Special caution is required to contact the agents of the Manmin sect.
Until its agent convert a sound Christian pastor into the followers of an
adulterous heretic sect, the agents fully utilize
the local Christianity's ignorance about the knowledge of newly-emerged
Korean sect movement. Information about the Korean sect is hard to
find on internet search in English version. But once its sect feature is
disclosed to the local Christianity, the activity gets shrinked and
outreached to the similar mystic groups to held a gathering.
Firstly, Manmin opens a start point by the introduction of its cooperating
pastors, who have variety of acquaintances in targeting countries.
Secondly, Manmin agent held a pastors seminar to introduce their overseas
activity and so-called Lee-Jaerock's power (so-called Power of God Video)
Thirdly, Manmin's overseas action team invites key pastors to Manmin's
domestic and overseas event.
Fourth, Manmin dispatches residing agents to targeting country and expands
its influences to the ignorant segments of Christianity and the business
and political VIPs to enable local gathering and to get permission for a
gathering.
In the Peru gathering (Dec 2004) and the Germany gathering (Oct 2004), Korean
missionaries noticed Manmin's activity and came to get inquiries about
Manmin's cult teachings from local pastors. And every Manmin's hidden heretic
teaching, which are normally not disclosed to the public, were disclosed
through the efforts of Korean missionaries. Eventually local Christians
rejected Manmin's activities in their country.

Pastor Aziz Morgan
Aziz Morgan is the influencial pentacostal denomination leader, who
was formerly cooperated with AOG (Assembly Of God, aog.org
USA) denomination which
actively evangelizes Arab and middle east countries. Through this
pastor seminar Mr Aziz Morgan disconnected the relation with AOG
churches of USA. Instead of that, he subjected all his subsidiary
churches into the Manmin's control as Manmin's branch church in
Egypt.
Mr. Aziz Morgan visited Manmin's place in early 2004 to attend
Manmin's gathering and to discuss the translation of Lee-Jaerock's
biography into Arabic language. He was also invited to Manmin's
gathering in Peru, Dec 2004. |
|
Pastor Walid Salah
He is the president of Egypt Freedom Publishing, which is the agent
of Lee-Jaerock's book, "Tasting Eternal Life Before
Death". He travels with pastor Aziz Morgan. And
he coordinated the pastor's seminar in Alexandria. Also he was
formerly well-known as pentacostal evangelist for praise and
healing. He was previously a member of Coptic Orthodox Church.
|
Could Manmin succeed in the Dubai Healing Festival in UAE?
April 23, 2003 Manmin planned to hold a local healing gathering in Hayatt
Regency Dubai. Manmin cooperated with a pastor of the Episcopal church in
Dubai. He connected Manmin agents to the persons who can control the
permission of the Christian gatherings. As a result, the day before the
first day of the Dubai conference on 22 Apr 2003, Dubai police department
dispatched several police trucks with tens of police officers armed with
machine guns, and occupied the conference hall in Hayatt Regency Dubai. The
police commanded the uninstallation of audio equipments and chairs with the
reason of security problems. Several police officers resided in the hotel
until the end of the conference schedule days. Lee-Jaerock returned to
Korea after a small prayer meeting in the Dubai Handicapped Club.
How to cope with Manmin's diffusion in Egypt
The same principles can be applied just like the Christianity's choice in
Dubai. The Christians in Dubai succeed in stopping the healing conference,
by requesting the banning of this gathering to the Islamic government authority.
Dubai's Christians knew that Lee-Jaerock had given heretical teachings in
the sermon and came to Dubai to make money from rich Dubai muslims to
prepare the construction fund of Manmin's Great Sanctuary. Those
information about Manmin's heretical teachings are referred from an US site
and written research reports from
Korean cult research centers were helpful to make people understand about
this cult.
